EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "HARRIS: UNCLE REMUS, 1911. The Wonderful Tar-Baby Story" takes us back to the early 20th century, immersing us in the world of African American folklore. Created by Carton Moorepark as an illustration for Joel Chandler Harris' renowned folktale collection, this pen-and-ink drawing beautifully captures the essence of Uncle Remus and his enchanting storytelling. In this particular scene, we see a young child engrossed in Uncle Remus' tale about Brer Rabbit's encounter with the mischievous Tar-Baby. The child's eyes are filled with wonder and curiosity as they hang on every word spoken by their beloved storyteller. It is through stories like these that generations have passed down wisdom, morals, and cultural heritage. The intricate details in Moorepark's artwork bring each character to life - from Brer Rabbit's cunning expression to Fox's sly grin. This illustration not only showcases the talent of both Moorepark and Harris but also serves as a testament to the power of literature in preserving traditions. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the importance of embracing diverse narratives within our society. It serves as a reminder that African American voices have contributed immensely to our literary heritage and deserve recognition for their invaluable contributions.
